WARNING
!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•
Lightweight power machines may need weight added to the
rear to maintain steering control and prevent forward
tipping or side tipping caused by a heavy front load. Consult
your power machine Operator’s Manual to determine
proper weight requirements and maximum weight
limitations.
•
Power machines outside the listed horsepower range must
not be used. Higher horsepower machines can damage the
attachment. Under horsepower machines makes the job
more difficult and are easier to tip over when loader arms
are raised due to high center of gravity.
Torque Requirements
Refer to “Torque Values Chart” on page 26 to for
correct torque values when tightening hardware.
Dealer Preparations
Ensure that the intended tractor/skid steer conforms to
the requirements stated under the heading
“Skid Steer/
Tractor Requirements” on this page.
CAUTION
!
To avoid serious injury:
Keep clear. Snow Pusher can flip forward suddenly causing
serious bodily injury while lifting unit from the crate.
Refer to Figure 1-1:
1. The Snow Pusher is shipped on its back. Cut and
remove shipping crate corner posts and top frame.
2. Using a hoist, fork lift, or other lifting device, attach
lifting chains to the two lifting slots at the back and to
the front of the two side plates.
3. Slowly lift unit until it has rotated upright.
4. Lower unit down slowly until resting on its skid shoes.
Accessories are easier to attach after hooking-up Snow
